Still liking them? I have Tannoy 385HPD's, Quad 988's and Vienna Acoustics Beethoven's and the Vulcans are way the best.

[doubtingthomas]

Actually 206e's, not even the right driver, I need to order some phase plugs off you, but even so, they sound awesome, utterly un-fatigueing, incredible soundstage.

How low does she go?

 

[Scottmoose]

By dint of long perseverence to have reached a depth of iniquity that I have seldom seen equalled, never supassed.

 

[chrisb]

How low does she go?

which?

 

[planet10]

Hey guys, hopefully final pass of QC happening now, so later today i hope -- the 5th anniversary of frugal-horn.com going live.

[Scottmoose]

which?

With my more serious hat on tuning (~42Hz) is set by the path length, which is all but identical in the three enclosures. The larger cabinets are impedance matched to a lower frequency of course & have progressively greater dynamic range.
